A spokesman for Iran’s foreign ministry on Tuesday said that representatives for the country would not be open to a meeting between President Trump and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, calling the U.S. “totally unreliable” and citing Trump’s withdrawal from the Iran nuclear agreement in a statement.
Bahram Qassemi said at a news conference that there would “definitely not” be a possibility for a meeting between the two leaders, adding that the Trump administration’s withdrawal from the nuclear pact with his government likely prohibited further negotiations, according to The New York Times.
“With current America and these policies, there will definitely not be the possibility of dialogue and engagement, and the United States has shown that it is totally unreliable,” Qassemi said.
“I think there are no conditions for such a discussion at all,” he added, according to the Times.
